Singapore shares open flat on Thursday

Some 62.8 million share worth S$66.3 million were traded. Gainers outpaced losers 62 to 57.
The most actively traded stock on early Thursday morning was Artivision Tech, whose shares surged on Wednesday on news of a proposed acquisition of Mobile Credit Payment that may lead to a reverse takeover and entry into the fast-growing fintech business.
